Written by Charlie Saponara on .

andruw_jones_cwsApril stats are always blown way out of proportion.  Especially home runs.  Only a few players who had big power numbers last April were able to maintain their pace throughout the season.  Let's finish up the list (started yesterday) of this year's surprising power performances and see who's for real and who you should sell high.

Site News and Notes

Written by Charlie Saponara on .

You may have noticed that I have stopped doing daily recaps.  I did these last season, but the are very time consuming and, apparently, not as popular as some other features on this site.  Honestly, I'd rather dedicate time to more analytical articles anyway.  There are plenty of sites that provide quality rundowns.
 
In place of the recaps I have added a widget to the left sidebar which I will use to make small news and notes type posts. This will make player news easy to publish without using a full post that would clog up the front page here. 
 
Are there any features you'd like to see more of here?  Anything that isn't here that you'd like to see?  Leave your feedback in the comments. 
 
Thanks for reading!
